Knowing that Its in HHH best interest to build Rollins to the moon for their match at Wrestlemania, having Rollins overcome Samoa Joe at Fastlane is inevitable.

What if they used Joe similar to how HBK used Diesel? Basically as a muscle who doesn't wrestle anyone significant, but just beats their ass. Maybe do some Joe squash matches too as a way to build him up before a later showdown with Rollins.

Very early diagnosis is that Seth is expected to miss 8 weeks. Wrestlemania is still a possibility but it isn't definite.

Watched my first Raw in... an eternity, this week, and I must say, it was a pretty darn enjoyable show. Before talking about anything else, a moment of praise for the commentary, which was just a pleasure to listen to. They sat comfortably in the space, never overshadowing what was happening, and everyone had a real easy manner with the others. Graves is delightful, happily stooging around for Saxton to get his licks in, while never making it seem like he had animosity towards his broadcast partners, which has too long plagued WWE commentary. Saxton doesn't say much, but that's to his credit, because he is comfortable not speaking up unless he has something of value to say. When he does, he confidently makes the goodie-two-shoes babyface argument, which frees up Cole to remain above the fray, and call the action. Cole sounds like the weight of the world is off his shoulders, and now that he can just focus on play-by-play, he can remind us all that he's a world class announcer, despite what all the haters have said for so long. Loved it.

To the show, Chris Jericho is on fire in this supporting role with Kevin Owens. Y2J has always been hit-or-miss as a main event performer, but in this role, he is perfection. Owens gives him a lot of space, and it is fantastic. Glad I'm in to experience this before it falls apart.

The ladies were good, especially Bayley, who is so freakin' good at fighting from underneath. Her selling is actually not that strong, but the way she's always taking futile swings to try (and fail) to get back into it is endlessly engaging. Fills up a lot of the space that the heel would otherwise have to occupy, while on control.

Cruiserweights & tag teams did their things well, with Tozawa getting a great showcase, and all the teams progressing their stories. I'm jumping in fairly cold, but it feels like they're all in a solid midcard groove.

Lastly, the Samoans going to war. Fucking yes. First off, the commentary I've seen so much that Roman Reigns can't talk is an abject lie. Yeah, he's not going to give you a 5 minute monologue, but as a 30 second badass punctuation to set up a big match, he f'n nailed it. He's here to throw hands, not say words. Then to the match, it was everything I hoped it would be. Just two big dudes throwing bombs at each other, until the inevitable run-in robs us of a decisive finish. They did everything they could ever need to, to make me want to see a PPV match between Reigns & Joe, without it even being something they put on the table. Can't ask for any more than that.

The Festival of Friendship was such a whirlwind of emotions. I don't know how to feel about anything anymore.

(Yes it took me this long to finish watching Raw). The crowd reaction to Bayley winning was beautiful. The two little ginger kids in the front row who jumped into the air are the best type of wrestling fan.

Yeah, Izzy lives in Florida and as awesome as it is to have a superfan that WWE compensates to be at all the shows, you can't just hustle a 7, 8, 9 year old? across the country for every show. Unfortunately
